NCT ID: NCT06348342 Enrolling by invitation - Menopause Clinical Trials

Pelvic Floor Muscle Exercises and Core Exercises in Menopausal Women

Start date: October 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The prospective and four-arm randomized controlled study was conducted on n = 136 (34 = control, 34 = kegel, 34 = core, 34 = kegel+ core group) menopausal women at Trakya University Health Research and Application Center Urology Polyclinic between Oct 2023 and June 2024. In the first interview, the researcher will apply an information form to all four groups, asking about personal information, habits, bladder irritants and fluid intake-related features, obstetric, gynecological and systemic disease-related features, and stress urinary incontinence-related features. This form will only be filled at the beginning. In addition, the "Pelvic Floor Distress Scale (PFDI)" and "Pelvic Floor Impact Questionnaire (PFIQ)" will be applied and will be repeated by the executive researcher at the 1st, 2nd and 3rd controls. It will be terminated at the 3rd follow-up. Descriptive statistics, Pearson, Spearman's correlation, and regression analyzes will be used in the analysis of research data.

NCT ID: NCT05404386 Enrolling by invitation - Quality of Life Clinical Trials

Effect of Mobile Application on Urinary Incontinence

Start date: September 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The first phase was designed in a methodological pattern in order to develop, usability, and performance of mobile application (mobileapp) called "My Fight with Incontinence". Aim of the second phase of the study was to evaluate the effect of mobileapp developed according to the health belief model on incontinence symptoms, Kegel exercise compliance, health belief and quality of life towards UI and kegel exercises in women with UI. The study was planned in a single-center, single-blind, one-to-one, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial design with a 3-month follow-up period. The research will be carried out in the Urology service and polyclinics of Eskişehir Osmangazi University Health Practice and Research Hospital. The study population of the research consists of 203 female patients over the age of 18 who were followed up with the diagnosis of Stress, Urge, and Mixed Type UI. Sample selection will not be made in the first stage of the study, and mobileapp will be tested on people aged 18 and over who can be reached, working, studying, or receiving treatment at Eskişehir Osmangazi University Training, Application and Research Hospital and Eskişehir Osmangazi University. The number of samples required for the study was determined by the power analysis made in the GPower 3.1 package program. Assuming that there may be losses during the follow-up and considering the possibility of nonparametric testing, a total of 96 individuals, 48 in each group, with an increase of 20%, will form the research group. In the second stage of the study, "Incontinence Severity Index Questionnaire", "International Urinary Incontinence Inquiry Form-Short Form (ICIQ-SF)", "Kegel Exercise Compliance Follow-up Form", "Health Belief Scale for Urinary Incontinence and Kegel Exercise", "Urogenital Distress Inventory-6 (UDI-6) and Incontinence Impact Questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7)" will be used. Control group will be given a training booklet called "My Fight with Incontinence", which includes healthy lifestyle behaviors, bladder training, and Kegel exercises related to UI after the pre-tests are applied. After pre-tests are applied to the study group, "My Fight with Incontinence" mobileapp will be installed on their mobile phones by researcher. Reminders will be sent to the patients on a regular basis via the mobileapp. Participants in both the control and study groups will be provided with the link of the survey form created via google forms in the 6th and 12th weeks by sending an SMS.
